Dissecting AI to Better Understand the Human Brain

At the 25th annual meeting of the Cognitive Neuroscience Society (CNS), researchers presented their work in which cognitive neuroscientists are increasingly using emerging artificial networks to enhance their understanding of one of the most elusive intelligence systems, the human brain. Among the work presented at the symposium at the CNS annual meeting held in Boston from March 24-27, 2018, was “Human and machine cognition: The deep learning challenge” by Aude Oliva of MIT. In Oliva’s work, neuroscientists are learning much about the role of contextual clues in human image recognition. By using “artificial neurons” – essentially lines of code, software – with neural network models, they can parse out the various elements that go into recognizing a specific place or object. More...

Machine Learning Shows Promise for Supporting Medical Decisions

A number of studies presented at the 67th Annual Scientific Session of the American College of Cardiology demonstrated how machine learning can be used to accurately predict clinical outcomes in patients with known or potential heart problems. The findings of these studies indicate that machine learning can usher in a new era in digital health care tools capable of enhancing health care delivery by aiding routine processes and helping physicians to assess the patients’ risk.
